Wedding in Italy

Legal Wedding

To marry legally in Italy as a foreign citizen, you need a Nulla Osta (certificate of no impediment) from your embassy. The process typically takes 2-3 months. Many couples choose to do the legal part at home and have a symbolic ceremony in Italy.

Best Time to Marry

Avoid July and August – it is extremely hot (35°C+) and peak tourist season. May-June and September-October offer perfect weather (20-28°C), fewer tourists and lower prices.

Budget and Costs

Italy can be both budget-friendly and exclusive. An intimate wedding for 20-30 guests starts from €10,000, while a luxury castle wedding for 100 guests can cost €50,000+.

Language

Many wedding planners speak excellent English, especially in Tuscany and on the Amalfi Coast.

Tuscany

Tuscany's rolling hills, cypress trees and vineyards create a dreamlike backdrop. Here you'll find everything from rustic wineries to elegant Renaissance villas.

Amalfi Coast

Dramatic cliffs, turquoise waters and pastel-colored villages. The Amalfi Coast is the place for couples dreaming of a spectacular sea-view wedding.

Lake Como

Elegant villas by the water, Alps in the background. George Clooney's favorite spot offers timeless elegance.

Puglia

Southern Italy's hidden gem with white trulli houses and olive groves. Authentic, beautiful and affordable.

Florence

Florence is Tuscany's city wedding - the Renaissance capital with Palazzo Vecchio, hillside villas and art on every corner.

Umbria

The farmhouse atmosphere of Tuscany, but in a region further inland. The same hills, olive groves and stone-built agritourism properties, but without the coast and without the most photographed spots.

Piedmont

Italy’s northern wine region. The Langhe and Monferrato hills, vineyard estates and country houses, just a short journey from Turin and Milan.

Lake Maggiore

The lake views and the gardens of the villas on Lake Como, a lake to the west. The Borromean Islands, Stresa and Verbania, with Milan Malpensa as the nearest airport.
